Alexander Pope as a conscious artist expresses himself clearly the age of his time. His aim is to explore the subject to the mind rather than heart of the readers. In order to correct the ordinary as well as rational mind Pope has imitated manner of men, their vagueness, obscurity and looseness, activities with enthusiasm and exuberance. However, it is Pope’s true self to follow nature that is admixture with rational and approved by tradition and quite different from Wordsworth mingled with the external force of human nature and universe. He points out the artifiality of upper class civilized people acquiring the rational principle of human conduct. Absolutism of Pope is observed as in the Representation of Beauty, in the expression of the dress manner, perfect description, the numerical description, sleepy state the Sylph guarding beautiful ladies, prayer for the acquiring admired lock sorting sylph’s paragon of beauty, numerical sense and the situation . Abstractness of Pope is also seen in his use of Extreme Happiness, Beyond Realism and last his Binary Mood in the rhyme pattern.
